c) 3 season goals will be unlocked each week for you to complete on the current month

d) Season goals will be harder than daily goals but will earn you more farm pass points

e) As you earn farm pass points you will be unlocking different kind of rewards

f) Rewards can be free or premium, everyone will have access to the free rewards and players who purchase the Farm Pass will also have access to the premium rewards for that month

g) Some rewards when claimed will grant you instant benefits like farm products, facility ingredients, farm decorations, coins or farm cash

Hi and thanks for all your work!

When you say "players who purchase the Farm Pass", will this be a coins or cash purchase? Thank you!

disappointed you did not give new levels this release as is the normal timing of your new levels as the ones you gave last month were 2 months late, doing new levels this month would have put you back on the schedule you had for years and years on frequency of new levels .....

You're right! We should have had one in May. The last one previous to June's one was 5th February 2022. And 12 weeks from that is the 4th May 2022 which is when we had an update but not a level one as it should have been. The last one was the 20th June 2022.

The original schedule was every March, June, September, and December give or take a month in either direction. The reason for the alteration to this is that although the developers started transferring the game to Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) well before Flash Player was discontinued by Adobe they ran into unexpected problems after it was brought online. Coding is not easy and I still think they did a great job, but it did disrupt the usual pattern we are used to since there were other priorities.
